"Thank you so much for your fantastic music and calling last Saturday night! You were so clear and professional and the richness of the different instruments (especially considering there was only 2 of you) was incredible. I was so impressed that I’ve been recommending you to all of my friends and colleagues and everyone there on the night was commenting on how good you were!"

This amazing swing, soul, funk band of talented musicians are experts in working the crowd and audience participation- led by the fun and fabulous, charismatic vocalist.

"Lost in the Groove performed at our birthday base last Saturday for 120 guests, and they were absolutely fantastic! Their music kept everyone on the dance floor all night. We booked them for three one-hour sets, and each set was packed with great tunes that had everyone enjoying themselves. They were all so incredibly talented, friendly and flexible. We couldn't have pulled off such an unforgettable party without them, and our guests couldn't stop raving about how amazing they were. We would highly recommend them - thanks Lost in the Groove x"

"Amazing performance and so easy to book and host. Contact was so easy leading up to the event, and was made so much simpler by them liaising with the reception event location directly to sort out logistics. The Ceilidh itself was incredible and just what my wife and I wanted! Great music and fantastic calling, Jake was so friendly and involved everyone in all the dances, which is just the inclusive atmosphere we wanted. They were also really accommodating when (inevitably) plans ran behind a little bit by the evening and the Ceilidh start needed nudging back 10 mins - which helped us out massively. Thoroughly recommend, had plenty of our guests asking who they were and where we found them!"

"What an amazing band. We had the best day ever anyway but you all truly made our evening. Fun, entertaining, the right mix of music and what amazing artists. You played our first song beautifully - thank you. 130 people in the evening and at some points I think everyone was on the dance floor - a priceless memory for us to treasure. Everyone agreed you were amazing. Expect lots of follow up bookings after Saturday. Trying to think of another event we can have you back for. Thank you. x"

" Superfunked provided the perfect mix of sophisticated Swing music in the early part of the evening then high energy Soul and Motown in the latter half, and even added some Elvis and Eagles. Awesome collection of singers and musicians."

"We booked Loaded! – Britpop vs Dance for our wedding last weekend and they were absolutely fantastic! The dance floor was full, we were absolutely loving the tunes and so many of our guests came up to us to say how much they enjoyed the music. The band did a set of classics and a set of 90s anthems so there was something for everyone, but we booked them for the 90s music in particular and they truly smashed it!!! They were one of the highlights of the day for us. They were also a total pleasure to deal with both prior to and on the day itself - really friendly and accommodating of our various requests. Thank you guys!!"

"Top class performers. Professional but relaxed and so warm and friendly. Incredible and versatile voices and they knew just how to get the party started. Catherine is a total and utter delight - from communicating with her prior to the event right through to saying a final goodbye. Sassy, fun loving, beautiful inside and out and with a voice that sends shivers down one’s spine. I promise that if you are lucky enough to have Loose Shoes being available for whatever event you are planning you will be as thrilled and delighted as me. First class in every way. Thank you Catherine and Danny for making my birthday such an unforgettable and brilliant evening! "

"Well what can I say?! It was my husbands 60th Birthday and we had a party planned! We’ve been to many parties & functions where the ‘live band’ had not delivered that fabulous party atmosphere that is required to make a party / celebration a success. I spent a lot of time reviewing various live party bands and made my decision after viewing The Pocket Rockers Facebook page which contained videos of previous parties. Once I made my mind up and made an enquiry I received timely & informative replies to my queries. We decided to leave it to The Pocket Rockers to come up with a set list to make the party a memorable one - informing them of my husbands likes & dislikes - and they certainly delivered! We had a fab party, with many compliments from the guests and lots of "
